San Francisco, Sept, lo. — Attei
the great rception given hini ii.
the city last night. Colonel Roo^^"
velt spent today restinj?. H
went to church this morning, ai u
then accomplished President Bei,
Ide Wheeler, of the University
of California, to his h^jne at tiu
university, where he had lunch
and spent the giea;erpart of tin
afteriioon. He oir.ed this evtm-
ing with former Governor Pardee
one of his m«>st enihusiasiio supr
porters in this state, attu Gift'oro
Jpinchot, who arrived today and
will make speeches in ttie state
in behalf of the Progressive,
candidates, state and national.
Tonight Colonel Roosevelt is ou
his way to Los Angeles, wnere
another tremendous reception
awaits him toraerrow afternoon-.
Apparently there is no doubt thdt
California will L)e carried for
Roosev^it.
In the recent primaiies, held
to nominates state officers, the
Progressives showed a great in
cease of strength ovey that de
monstrated in the spring prim
aries, when that state was car
ried for Roosevelt by 77,000 over
Taft. In the recent primaries
the Progressives polled more
votes than were cast for all the
presidential conaidates, Dem
ocratic and Repunlican, including
Tatt, La Foiietce, Wilson and
Clark, in the spring primaries.
AiiOiiier most important dev-
eiopn en of t .e piima ie^is that
the fourth district, the one in
which the Roosevelt delegates to
the Republican convention were
thrown out by the Tait-Penrose-
Barnes special privilege c^ombina-
tion, v'as, carried by the Pro
gressives by a majority of 2700.
These figures are officials, and
cannot be denied by any one.
When they were shown to Co!.
Roosevelt he declajed them to be
of tlie greatest importance as
settling all gufcstion respe-cting
the theft of,the two Ca ifornia
delegates in the national Repub
lican convention by the special-
privi lege organization, antt add
ed additional proof to the charge
that the Taft nomination was
stolen.
Colonel Roosevelt was tremen
dously impressed with his recep
tion here last night. The great
audience of more than 15,000
persons he'^addressed in a cohse-
um had assembled there before
7 o'clock in the evening and
waited two hours for his an ival
In that instead of .becoming im
patient, the great crowd merely
increased ,its enthusiasm.
The time was spent in singing
the songs hymns which have been
adopted by the Progressives as
representing the fight they are
making for righteousness and in
cheering for Roosevelt and John
son. There had been published
m the newspapers many con
flicting statements of the time
Colonel Roosevelt would arrive in
the city and, therefore, neither
the crowds at the great Collisum
building nor those on the streets
had any definite,
idea how long they would be con -
pelled to wait.
It is significant that many thou-
,sands waited patiently, although
the greater part of them knew
that all they would get by wait
ing was a glimpse jof the Pro
gressive candidate As he passed
them in an automobile on his
way to the Coliseum.
As a fact, the crowds on the
streets did ,not receive even this
reward. The commitlee in
charge of the arrangements had
the colonel's automobile driven
at such speed thetrowds did not
know when he passed, and con
tinued waiting until tJje word
was received that he had actual
ly begun his speech.
The audience he addressed was
qui'ik to catch his arguments
against the attitude taken by
Governor Wiison that lioej-iy re-
qu.res the restriction, and not
the extension of governmental
pov;er.
They saw at once that an ex
tension of ->:f'vernn)enral j)owers
with such })owers controlled by
the peoph; '.!*.emseives would af
ford, as Mr, Kooseveit said, the
only possible way of coping'with
the great combinations which
now prey ^ upon t he jjeople, and
that the vVilson ai gurr ent was
an argument which could ofily be
sound as government is controll-
eci by t'orces antagonistic to the
public interest, and beyond the
power of the public to reach.
Coionel Reosevelt' and the Pro
gressive leaders here believe that
Governor Wilson has blundered
as badly as did Taft when he
declared for government bv a
representative part of the people
m taking a stand ag iinst tae ex
tension of governm^ht activities
and in favor of imp it,i rig restric
tions.
This attitude of the governor,
together withliis attempt to show
that social and inustiial evils can
be reached only thx'ough Uuiff
legislation, it is argued, so clear-
iy indicate the reactionary lean
ings of Governor VVilsop and the
Democratic party that they are
likely to be discussed by Colonel
Roosevelt in other sspeeches.
Even L>;.-muciats concede that
Goverr.or Wilson’s candidacy is
not gr> w ng in.sirengih, and that
nis c.ies arousing no enthusi-
bm. Roosevelt, on the contrary
la getting stronger and stronger
throughout the entire west. ^
Since he started on this trip he
has been in fourteen states.
In every one of them (here was
dispiai ed by the people the same
great interest in the man and in
me doctiinc of human rights
which he is advocrtting. In
every one of them there has been
demonstrated a degree of enthu-
siasm which obviously combined
great liking for Roosevelt him-^
and gieat intei'est and faith
1 n \ lie jju rpose of the Progressive.
All the newspapers in San
Francisco with the exception of
the Bulletin, are against Roose
velt. .-'.oniie of them are advocat
ing Wilson, and others still stand
ing for Taft. "Vet every*paper
this morning carried the Roose-
veltsipeech in full and long ac-
counrs of the great demonstra
tion oi popular approval which
greeted his arrival and his utter
ances,
-Such extensive and fail ac
counts in rhe newspapers adverse
to the Pr.'grefesive cause can be
taken as (.he surest indicati(;n
that the public is with the Pro
gress! voi-y, and that the papers
are.compelled, to protect their
own iiiierests. and fo avoid pub-
iicieseninjent, to print the truth
about tii':,' Rooaeveh: -meetings.
Li con; eciion with this, how-
3V£r, ihe newspapers of the
s^ate are piintingmany untruths
respecting Roosevelt himself and
.editorin] arguments intended to
be miRl;iading. That these are
having little, if any effect, is
:;liOvvn by the spirit of the pub-
uc,
Roosevelt’s the only candidacy
that is arousing any pubhc enthu
siasm ihroughout this w^estern
country. Democrats believe that
VVilson will be elected, but they
base their calculations not upon
.;ny strong public seeling in be-
' aif of Wilson, but upon the
possibility that Roosevelt cannot
get enough Progressive votes to
otfset the natural Democratic
strength, merely because they
say there are hot enough Pro
gressives in the country to elect
him.
HOn this point it may easily
prove that they are mitaken. The
Progressives in the west outnum
ber all others, and their strength
is like that of Roosevelt, growing
steadily, not only in the west,
but throughout the country.

The American people ha vie
determined th'f* end of bossism in
politioH. Governor Wilson h^
responded courageously , to thjis
demand and fulfilled one: ofiiisi^
pledges in warning the Democra
tic voters of New Jersey against
the candidacy of James Smith
for the United Sti^te.^ senate. His
declaration is a blow for political
decency Which iritrtibers of all
parties will heartily approve. He
^ays:
“Mr.'Smith’s selection as thie
Deniocratic cardidate for the
senate would be the most fatal
step backward that the Democ
rats of the state could possibly
take. It would mean his restorar
tion to polijicai leadership in
New Jersey the moment my
services as governor ended, and
with his restoration, a return to
the machine rule which so long
kept Jevery active Democrat in
the siate* in subordination to hitn
and prevented every progressive
program conceived in the interest
-of the people from being put
in to effect.
“I speak with knowledge in
this matter, because at every turn
of my administration since I be
came governor I have found his
hand again.st the new plans of
the party, his influence working
steadily but covertls' against
everything that has substituted
hope ^nd pride for discourage
ment and shame in the politics of
New Jersey during the twenty
months during which I have l^en
permitted to serve the people of
the state.”
